Discuss Awkward job coming up in the Business Related area at ElectriciansForums.net

Interesting responses.

Knee jerk reaction was to inform the customer… but discussing with my wife, we thought I should be the bigger man and just do the job. I don’t have to be friendly with him.

The problem I see is that if I tell the customer, can he then accuse me of telling tales/ losing him work/ somehow blocking the wages arrestment??

I don’t know how he can still be self employed. His last company folded as he didn’t send in accounts etc, (was an ltd) and now he’s trading under a different name.

Go to Registry Trust and see what he has against him- make sure your CCJ is there, this is then evidence you can let the client know about it

REGISTRY TRUST LINK You have a duty to make your client aware (hand them the report from Registry Trust and let them make their mind up- then you have informed them)
If things were to go pear shaped with the joiner with the client and it came out you could have told them this it may be awkward for you.

You could also get the RT info and do a leaflet drop with it 🤨


Can you check if he owns his van through DVLA and HPI check- if he does then you can have a baliff seize it to expedite payment.

Do they own a property? Add an inhibition - you will get interest ay 8% per annum
